When I went to college at GWU 1962-1966, the full time
tuition then ranged from $440 to $840 per semester. After the William and Mary disaster, my

I graduated from Washington-Lee on June 14, 1961 (on the valedictorian list -- there were 14 of us). When I attended, the main building was a three-story brick building built in 1928. Homeroom was room 307.
